Waaaaayyyy back in 1984, WGST-AM radio in Atlanta (not exactly a hotbed of radical, conservative Americanist philosophy) polled its listening audience and asked the question “Is the United Nations doing a good job?” 81% responded “NO!”
So, DECADES later, why the hell are we still involved with one of the most corrupt and liberty-threatening organizations ever invented?
Sounds like a question for YOUR congress critter’s next TOWN HALL MEETING to me.
Ha! Ha! Who’s the idiots that have to pay for that......uh, er, nevermind.

Something about the U.N. completely flips me out. If I had $$ and did not have to work,I would stand in front of the U.N. building every day and burn those flags.
At my daughters school while waiting on her in the office to gather her things to leave, a posted lt.tan document with a watermark logo caught my eye. It was the international human rights declaration pushed out of the UN.This was posted on the door of the counselor who also had signs indicating her disapproval of spanking children.This is a top performing arts school in nation located in Houston.
But...my daughter’s English teacher is an underground right-winger so all’s not lost.She has a spectacular reading list....
Sure they would - because it's coming out of the pockets of all those non-supporters currently with a job.
“Bush did the same thing with AIDS in Africa for Clinton slush fund. $15 billion or was it more.”
.
I still would like to know if the $15billion made any difference in the fight against AIDS in Africa. Probably ended up in the wrong pockets anyway.
I could give a damn less about these self-made hell hole countries ,the money belongs here.
““Bush did the same thing with AIDS in Africa for Clinton slush fund. $15 billion or was it more.””
It was 9 billion and if everyone remembers, the majority of it went to Ethiopia. Ethiopia went to war with Somalia to stop an Islamic insurgency.
Call it more of a payoff.
You misunderstand our resident DU troll. His goal isn't to excuse 0bamas spending, but rather to smear GWB.
I’m sure lots of UN bureaucrats will be well paid!
This is just disgusting, considering how many people we have out of work, and how we don’t even HAVE the money to be giving away into this!
Yep, we are paying those who are “willing to do the jobs supposedly that Americans won’t do”
Nice that primitive people and idiots are given the keys to the world because that is “liberating” them and “charitable”... kind of like giving phamacy degress away to heroine addict who feel disenfranchised.
Our elite is completely nuts.
“Social Security recipients will not get an increase this year, but they are raiding the money tree for this?”
This is criminal.
its take money from you and your family and give it to the WORLD,been going on now for 1913 thu 2010 and more
“Probably ended up in the wrong pockets anyway.”
You can bet on it.
and America takes another one in the........
rlmorel
Back in the day... 100 billion was a lot of money.
Completely insane.
throw another few thousand taxpayers on the fire...
Well. Parts of the oil-for-food were. Remember that nonsense?
